the use of the function any() can find where there are any numbers equal to one.
A= [7,7;2,2;1,1;3,3]
A(any(A==1,2),:)=[]
by using the dimension modifier in the any() function, i can return which rows or columns contain the logical 1 which is when A ==1.

oh.. sorry meetings all day. the two is the dimension modifier. if you check the help for the any ('>>help any') the 2 stands for rows and 1 stands for columns. similar to the sum() function where you can sum a matrix in the row or column directions based on the dimension parameter.
